Abstract
An examination of the hyperfine structure of some ten lines in the arc spectrum of platinum has led to the determination of the isotopic constitution and the nuclear spin of this element. The isotopes are 196 (18), 195 (9), 194 (7) and 192 (1). The relative abundance of the isotopes will be checked by microphotometric study. The nuclear spin of the odd isotope 195 is ½h/2π. The isotopic displacement is observed to be positive.
